COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
A Beer Cloaked in Secrecy An ale whose mysterious and unusual palate will swirl across your tongue and ask more questions than it answers. A beer brewed clandestinely and given a name whose meaning is never revealed. Why #9? Why, indeed. A sort of dry, crisp, fruity, refreshing, not-quite pale ale. #9 is really impossible to describe because there’s never been anything else quite like it. Fermented with our 150 year old strain of top-fermenting English yeast.

Delicious, light and fruity. Wonderful and refreshing as I’ve come to enjoy from all Magic Hat brews. Definite apricot/citrus flavor.

Slightly sweet, nutty finish, citrucy taste and mouthfeel with pistachio notes.

Pours a hazy golden color with a thin white head. Has a citrus aroma with a hint of melon. Medium sour with a touch of bitter. Thin body with a fizzy (almost soda) palate. I really dig this beer. I’ll be ordering this at a bar if they have, and I’ll grabbing a six pack soon.

With its golden color and fruity hints of apricot, #9 is a staple in my refrigerator. This unique beer is best served fresh, tapped directly at the brewery in Burlington, VT. The apricot undertones make this an incredibly refreshing beverage.

Great beer. One of my favorites. Always in the fridge. My only complaint is they are not a "local beer" anymore. But the taste, hoppiness and and after taste is great. One of my favorities.

Rustyham (1303) - Nashville, Tennessee, USA - JAN 27, 2010
aroma of thick all-natural apple sauce with mango pureee, flavor is a very crisp peach with a tiny hop bite and slight vegetable aftertase. Color is a light pinkish orange. Very fluffy cottony head. Super deliscious. I could drink gallons of this, especially at $2.99 a bomber.
